There is no class for single characters.  There is a unichar type and I
believe what you are looking for is:

http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/Developer/Base/Reference/index.html

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSCharacterSet_Class/Reference/Reference.html

which provide -characterIsMember: for special character sets.
